Which version of Java does Lightbend support?

Which version of Java does Lightbend support?

We are often asked this question, so we have created a standard policy found on Lightbend Tech Hub. However, we are always evaluating this, so if you would like to add your voice to our considerations then we ask that you open a support case and provide us with the following information:
  • Which JDK do you plan to use? (i.e. Oracle’s, Azul’s, IBM’s, Red Hat’s, other)
  • How frequently do you plan to upgrade JDK versions? Do you plan to upgrade quickly to each LTS release?
  • Any Lightbend related product which you currently use? (i.e. Akka (and sub components – Cluster, Persistence, etc), Lagom, etc)
